What is recorded here

According to Power (1952, 64) there was a standing stone (dims. c. 1.05m x c. 0.6m x c. 1.4m) in Coolbeggan East or Coolbeggan West. A folk tale related that it had been thrown from Carnglass Hill, c. 3km to the E, by Fionn Mac Cumhaill. It remains unlocated. Power, Rev. P. (1952) The placenames of the Decies. (second ed.)

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
